Adopting a Hogar

Has anyone out there "adopted" a hogar? Our church would like to undertake an effort to support a hogar in Guatemala and I would be interested in any information about that possibility.

Thanks!

I pmd you about my agency who sponsors its own orphanage and without any more adoptions taking place they definitely could use the help for the babies waiting to be adopted and the orphans with no other place to go.
